Abstract

These findings illustrate early developmental changes in the cellular and subcellular localization of flotillin-1 protein in the rat visual cortex. Moreover, the ultrastructural distribution of flotillin-1 immunoreactivity suggested that flotillin-1 was transported mainly into presynaptic terminals where it exerts effects at the presynaptic sites of excitatory and inhibitory neurons.
